[Bug 1400230] [NEW] Recommends on firefox-locale-de dropped in trusty-updates

 

Public bug reported:

The initial package of language-pack-de-base had a Recommends on
firefox-locale-de:

http://packages.ubuntu.com/de/trusty/all/language-pack-de-base

In trusty-updates this Recommends was dropped:

http://packages.ubuntu.com/de/trusty-updates/all/language-pack-de-base

The changelog for the language packs doesn't contain the package history
(only "Initial Release"), so I can't tell whether this was intentional
or a bug.

To me it looks like a bug and the behaviour shouldn't change in a LTS
release: Anyone who installed firefox-locale-de through the language
pack will have the firefox-locale-de package suggested for auto-removal.

Cheers,
Moritz
